    The sixth of the seven churches - what might it have to say to us today?

    And so we come to the sixth of the seven letters to seven churches, the letter to the church in Philadelphia, which is of course in Asia, not the USA. What do we know about the city? Philadelphia was a strong fortress city, strategically located on the road from Rome to the east. It was a city of ...read more

    What was said to the Church in Laodicea - the seventh of the seven churches - and what it might mean for us today.

    Laodicea was a very, very wealthy city, founded by Antiochus II and named after his wife Laodice. The city was strategically located, where three major roads converged, so it was highly commercial. It was well known for its banking industry, its manufacture of black wool, and a medical school ...read more

    A sermon for Advent Sunday, also alluding to St. Andrew’s tide and World AIDS day.

    Advent Sunday is a time that can mean so many different things to so many different people.

    How we are to be salt and light in the world

    Brooks Atkinson, an American journalist, said, “I have no objection to churches, so long as they don’t interfere with God’s work”. Why are we here? What does it mean to be the church in Farnham in 2005? Our gospel reading has some ideas for us on what it might be all about, and our epistle ...read more

     | 3,494 views

    What can we learn today from the Church at Ephesus, one of the seven churches in Revaltion2 -3 ?

    Many people are frightened by the book of Revelation, because it seems to be unintelligible. I hope that, if not tonight, by the end of this sermon series at Advent, you’ll see that not only is it reasonably easy, with some careful background reading (which I’ve done on your behalf), for ...read more

    What are you anchored to when your world turns upside down in the storms of life?

    “Anchors During Adversity” (Romans 5:1-11) Weds. Night I’m glad you’re here tonight. You know, one of the things that has always been kind of a mystery to me is why more people don’t come to church on Wednesday night.

    God’s wonderful banquet is free for all.

    I wonder if you’ve ever bought a new car? Different things appeal to different people, don’t they. Some people are concerned with the technical details about the engine, others are keen to buy from a local dealer, others want to stick with a manufacturer they’ve bought from before, others are ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 2,166 views

    What can we learn today from the churches at Smyrna and Pergamum, one of the seven churches in Revelation 2-3 ?

    Why would letters be written to these churches? Well, Smyrna was a very important centre of trade, with a valuable harbour, and big wine business. It was a very beautiful city, even outstanding. In all the civil wars, the people of Smyrna always chose the right side to be: it was politically ...read more

    A sermon for Church Anniversary

    Jesus said, ‘every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure-store both the new and the old.’ This rather odd little verse is probably a kind of signature from the writer of the Gospel. It’s as though he was giving us a hint about ...read more

     | 5,093 views

    the next sermon in the series on the seven churches of Asia

    And so we come to the church at Thyatira. This is the longest of the seven letters, which, ironically, was written to the smallest and least important city. Unlike the other towns, we don’t know very much about Thyatira, so it’s not so easy to understand and interpret the contents of the letter. ...read more

  • Questions, Questions

    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,432 views

    How do we respond to the questions of life? How did Jesus respond?

    It seems that questions fill our daily lives. Everywhere we go, we are confronted by questions. At home it might be very simple things like, “What’s for tea?” or, “When’s Grandma coming?”, “How can I afford it?”, “Who does she think she is?”, “What was that referee doing?”, “Why can’t I have ...read more
